Chapter 428: Sending Him Home

The maid nodded hurriedly and said without complaint:

-Yes, he's inside.

What had happened was something no one wanted to see. But such an ending was what Rafael had to go through.

Sofia nodded and remained in her seat, not daring to go in anyway. After a moment's hesitation, Sofia took a step away, ready to enter the room.

When she entered, her whole face froze. The scene that appeared before her was something she had never expected. At this moment, Rafael was simply too weak.

-Rafael? Rafael? -Sofia rushed forward and called the other by name twice.

Rafael slept on the bed, his whole body struggling to gather the necessary strength. His legs were bloody and fleshy and, to the naked eye, it was clear that he had suffered the ravages of others. It had to be said that the other party had not only been cruel.

Sophia looked at Raphael like this, tears streaming down her face.

-How can you look like this?

Sofia panicked. The man had fallen with fire and flame, but Rafael had suffered greatly at first glance.

The other side's methods were too dark.

-Rafael, Rafael, can you hear me?

Sofia spoke into Raphael's ear one after another, hoping he could hear her. At that moment, Rafael weakly opened his eyes.

But after opening them for a moment, they immediately closed again.

He had no strength and the pain in the leg area was so intense that he was unconscious. It was good enough that he had survived. Leopold was ruthless and had not wanted to spare his life from the beginning.

Even at the last knuckle, there would be no exceptions.

He was so good that he was worse alive than dead.

-Sofia...

Rafael was lying on the bed, his mouth opened with difficulty, as if he was trying to say something to Sofia. Sofia couldn't hear what the other party was saying and hurried upstairs. Rafael seemed to have something to explain to her.

-What did you say?

To hear what the man was saying, Sofia put her ear directly to Rafael's mouth. But when she heard him, her color changed drastically.

Rafael wasn't trying to explain anything, but to beg Sofia to ease his pain a little.

It was really too much for him now.

-Rafael, wait, you'll get better soon.

Even in such a situation, Sofia was not willing to give up on Rafael. So at a time like this, how could Rafael give up on himself? Sofia's eyes fell on the doctor.

-Doctor, how are you? -Sofia looked at the doctor next to her and took the floor to ask.

After a series of tests, the doctor basically came to the general conclusion that Rafael would survive, but the legs would not be saved.

In the future, Rafael would be confined to a wheelchair.

-Madam, there is no way to keep the leg," the doctor looked at Sofia and said quickly. It might not be necessary to examine her, but it was clear that the leg had not been saved.

Sofia was prepared for the result and was not too surprised.

-Please use all your strength and don't let anything happen to it," Sofia looked at the doctor and said seriously. She would not give up until the last moment.

The doctor performed many tests and set up an operating room before preparing to transfer Rafael directly to the hospital.

Sofia mustered all her strength and tried to keep her heart from feeling very sad. The matter had come to this point, so she could only do her best to bring Rafael back to health. As for the rest, she could only leave it in the hands of fate.

Early in the morning, Mariana was sitting at the dining room table, alone and hot.

It was as if she was thinking about something. Her brain was as if short-circuited, and she couldn't pay attention for a while. Even when Leopoldo came, Mariana was not prepared for anything. -What's wrong? Are you distracted?

Seeing Mariana's appearance, Leopoldo couldn't help but ask.

Since she came home yesterday, Mariana didn't seem to be in a very good mood.

-Okay, it's time for breakfast.

Mariana handed the sandwich in her hand to the man, prompting him to eat it. Leopoldo took the sandwich, but his eyes were still fixed on Mariana's body, unable to move them. Mariana's attention was always on the clouds, not on Leopoldo.

It was only after a long time that Mariana finally spoke.

-How is Rafael?

As soon as she uttered her words, Leopoldo's eyes focused on her body, unable to look away.

He promised Mariana that he would keep Rafael alive.

However, Mariana always felt furtive in his heart.

-Mariana, have you been thinking about this all night? -Leopoldo asked quickly. Looking at Mariana's appearance, it seemed that she hadn't had much rest last night either. As soon as he reached the table, he began to ask about Rafael.

It was clear that Mariana was still upset about yesterday's incident. She had some worries in her heart, but in front of Leopoldo, she still couldn't say anything.

-No... No, I'm just asking," Mariana smiled faintly and spoke.

She was really just asking, nothing more.

Mariana tried hard to appear calm, but the more she did so, the more flaws she exposed.

-I sent him home.

Leopoldo ate his sandwich, not forgetting to take a sip of coffee. His gaze rested on Mariana's body and his heart was tinged with a slight worry.

Mariana looked at him and hesitated for a while.

The person had been sent home, so that meant nothing was going to happen. That outcome was naturally the best. While Mariana was still thinking about it, Leopoldo had already gotten up.

-I'm going to work, didn't you mention before that you wanted to take a maternity class? I arranged for someone to send you there," Leopoldo wiped his mouth and turned to Mariana. Mariana stared at him and smiled faintly.

-You signed me up for a class? -Mariana was surprised to hear this news and spoke up to ask Leopoldo.

Leopoldo took the jacket from the butler's hand and smiled.

-I was thinking of inviting the professor home, but I thought the atmosphere would be better in a small classroom.

-Okay, I know," Mariana replied without replying.

After a few moments, a henchman she had never seen before came through the door. But by that look, the man seemed strong.

-This is Alonso, he will be in charge of your security from now on. Even if you don't like it, you have to stay with him until the baby is born," Leopoldo looked at Mariana and admonished her slowly. "When the baby is born? Then he's the one who will protect the child."

-Okay, I'll hold on until the baby is born -Mariana directed a glance at Alonso, who was next to her, and said seriously. He was just one more person around, it was absolutely no problem.
